I built the plugs and a friend who is a professional air brush artist did all the finish work. We had some fun and the plugs sure did catch us some fish.

"I caught this fish this morning 5/21 on my 9th cast! they are starting to come in now the water is 54 degrees so a little cool, the boat guys are getting them though, from shore its a little slow for keepers despite the reports which are rumors started by the bait stores to drum up business. the Cago lures are swimming perfect for me! for this fish I left the lure floating after it hit the water then twitched a bit for about 10 seconds then started a slow steady retrieve. fish was a 33" and unfortunately we can only keep 1 striper now in Mass so to avoid a warning or ticket for culling (trying to catch one bigger then giving the smaller away) I had to leave once I landed it.

Wow! Those fish did not have a chance with those lures. Dominick
nothing like catching fish with your own gear call it a rod, lure or even a extremely mod reel
